The China-centric video sharing platform is expanding with a new international app and an English version of its website -- with no identity verification (for now at least)

Ironically I searched for something unrelated and got bombarded with a bunch of BL dramas.

    What's a BL drama?

    Boy love drama. The restrictions on homosexual content is overblown, though not entirely fabricated. XHS has plenty of LGBTQ content, for example, domestic and foreign. Not as much as Western social media, to be fair, but also I don't see people bullying LGBTQ people or creators on XHS.

    There's more restrictions on overt sexuality, straight or gay. Make no mistake, Chinese culture is more conservative in some ways than the West, but it's not as restrictive as the news makes it out to be.
